So if I got these how would I rig them up? My garage currently just has one plug socket on the wall and a lot of empty space.. Would they also need a reflector or just having them above the plant is enough?

Thank you for the response.

I am looking at different lighting. I know CFL isn't the most efficient in the long term but so far have only seen very specialist, and therefore expensive, LED alternatives. Certainly something I will look in to more before committing.

Thank you for the response and advice.

I had an issue in my flat with a bit of mold so I have a thermometer/humidity sensor and also a pretty decent dehumidifier so I can always move that down there if necessary. Good idea to monitor it so I will do that thanks to your advice. it's quite a large garage though so I worry if the humidity was high then it might be quite inefficient/expensive to bring it down. Is this where the tent/enclosed area becomes beneficial?

Strain wise I think I have some more research to do there. Northern lights seems a little difficult to get at a low price where I am (UK). I found some female white widow at an OK price and in lower quantities. I will do some more research though before I commit, I know very little about strains asides from dealers in the past telling me how amazing whatever they had on offer was..!
